Trying to get my Ubuntu box to make use of the APC UPS connected to
it. Checked the APC web page and found that they do support Linux and ran
apt-get install on the package. Here is the error messages I get:

Failed to fetch

- stat (2 No such file or directory)
W: You may want to run apt-get update to correct these problems
E: Unable to fetch some archives, maybe run apt-get update or try with
--fix-missing?

It seems that every time I run apt-get install, I get the two errors about
being unable to "stat source package list cdrom ..."

I have run update etc but with no apparent effect.

Any ideas/suggestions would be appreciated.

TIA
